WBO Middleweight titlist Billy Joe Saunders is eyeing up a huge Wembley summer showdown with pound for pound megastar Gennady Golovkin should he get past ‘Mad’ Max Bursak.
The Hatfield ace is fully focused on the first defense of his title against the Kazakh fighter on Saturday April 20th at the Copper Box Arena, but is determined to prove himself against the ‘big man’ of the division. Here’s what he said:
“Now I’ve become a world champion I’ve grown in myself and grown in my beliefs.
“Nobody is invincible, you only have to look at Tyson Fury who went over and done Klitschko in his back garden.
“If I could get Golovkin at Wembley Stadium, which would be a massive fight, I’d show the world I can beat the best.”
Billy Joe Saunders makes the first defense of his title against “Mad” Max Bursak and headlines a card that also features: The Vacant European Cruiserweight title between Ovill McKenzie v Dmytro Kucher; Ryan Walsh defends his British Featherweight Championship against James Tennyson. The full undercard will released shortly.
